This is also the day that the Emirates cut ties with the British Protectorate when the treaty expired in 1971, thus ending UK\u2019s control over the Arab monarchies. The seven kingdoms or Emirates then came together to form one federal nation which was then headed by <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HH Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since then, every December 2nd has been witnessing grand celebrations, air shows and even military parades to commemorate the day. This year too will be no different, as the nation has planned a spectacular firework show, parades and more among other celebratory events. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dubai Residents Are Thrilled!<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dubai residents and residential buildings are prime spots for celebratory gatherings.
